Having the perfect base for make up is something that is sought after by many people. Although we’d hate to admit it, our skin is ageing by the day so it’s important to give it great ingredients and keep it moisturised to stay looking as fresh as possible!
As a woman about to go into her early thirties one of the ingredients I started incorporating into my daily routine was retinol. I use a pea sized amount every night on my whole face – this powerful bit of skincare can reduce fine lines and wrinkles by increasing collagen production.
Today I’d like to speak about 2 other skincare ingredients though, namely Q10 and creatine.
Q10 is a powerful anti-oxidant and energiser coenzyme that helps to recharge and rejuvenate your skin. Creatine can be found naturally in our bodies, and is converted in our internal organs, where it helps supply energy to our cells. Our natural production of creatine slows over time so it’s a great ingredient to apply topically to our skin to combat signs of wrinkles.
Here are a couple of items from the Nivea Q10 range that maximise some of these amazing ingredients!
Q10 anti wrinkle firming day/night cream
These creams do pack a punch, providing anti-ageing, moisturising, hydrating and sun protection benefits. They are light enough to use on a daily basis and you can switch between the two dependent on the time of day. The night cream works whilst you sleep whereas the day cream provides a great base for moisturisation underneath your make up.
Q10 power 10 minute sheet mask
This biodegradable and soft sheet mask gives you a boost, providing firmer feeling skin in just 10 minutes. Packed with key ingredients it’s lovely as a treat after a long week and you could even pop it on whilst having a bath.
Q10 power serum pearls
This serum helps recharge and revitalise your skin. The pearls in the serum deliver the highest concentration of Q10 in this range. If incorporated into a daily routine then skin looks smooth and energised. Combining it with the day and night creams would be best to ensure you’re getting the most out of these winning ingredients!
